ok, I just hope that I can easily go back and forth between string and hexadecimal int in c++ 'cause I might not look like it but I'm still a c++ n00b

For instance dec2bin and bin2dec functions of the current plugin aren't really good/usefull because of int limitations. 'Cause after all, bitwise operations are made on decimal int.So you will probably set things in decimal and the hexadecimal calculation will probably just be under the hood. Like with bitwise stuff.Hmmm... maybe an hex2dec function to be able to set things in hexadecimal format with a string... hmmm... If I can easily typecast string to hex int as I said... I'm thinking while typing...

Remind me at the end of the month I might get carried away in other projects (:Yann2011-12-06 11:06:57

well, it's a pain and I don't have that much room for conversion 'cause the param you enter in cc when you use the plugin are input in the plugin via either simple int or string (as far as I know param[0].GetInt() or param[0].GetString() are the function used to retrieve the param). I'm not knowledgeable enough to know if I can create my own GetLongInt() function to handle that.And anyway, dec2bin and bin2dec really are just for checking how bitwise operation works, you really don't need that in the code itself.you will do a 8 and 4 (knowing that "binarily" it is 1000 and 100) If you do a bin2dec(1000) and bin2dec(100) instead, you lose all the speed and efficiency of bitwise operation.

I just wanted to say thanks for this. I'd been searching the manual for this kind of functionality, only to find that it isn't implemented in Construct. Good thing we can extend its functionality with plugins.
